history:

purchased on ebay 8 jan 2010 

after reviewing the car we installed new suspension and brakes and a roll bar and drove the car. 

a year later the engine started having problems so we purchased a new engine + transmission from mini mania and installed it. 

since the new engine was installed the car has been driven very rarely. i have all of the receipts to show the amount of effort that has gone into this car. 

in fact, i had never added up how much we had spent and i can tell you that it is much more than i had expected ( well over $20,000) and it was worth every penny for the fun we have had.

new carpet

brakes + suspension:

new shocks, springs and high low suspension trumpets

rear sway bar (not installed)

braided steal brake lines

new brake pads

new brake master cylinder

minilite wheels (no spare tire)

tires in good shape


what needs to be done:

the rear sway bar needs to be installed

one the sway bar is installed i would have the suspension adjusted to take advantage of the amazing handling that these cars exhibit.

needs to be driven and not sitting in a garage

the speedometer cable apears to be faulty and needs to be replaced


why are we selling:

we have a new car project that we are undertaking and will require space, time and lots of resources to be realized. that means several cars and a couple projects must go.


terms:

i would like to do everything through paypal, but i am open to other transaction options. 

upon winning the bid, i would like a $500 deposit within 24hours and i would like the remaining moneys to be transferred within 7 days.

if you would like to make other arrangements, please contact.

Mini confirms first plug-in hybrid and it looks like it's based on the Countryman

Mon, Oct 17 2016

Mini confirmed Sunday it's developing its first plug-in hybrid model, apparently based on the Countryman. The hybrid will utilize an electric motor that works with a combustion engine, expected to be a 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder unit. Though the actual name wasn't specified, Mini said the vehicle will have two driving modes. With Auto eDrive, it can reach speeds of up to 50 miles per hour. Switching into Max eDrive increases top speed to approximately 77 miles per hour. The electric motor sends all of its power to the rear wheels, while the combustion engine powers the front wheels. The engine only kicks on in certain situations. Mashing the throttle brings the engine to life, as does switching the car into "Save Battery" mode, which allows the engine to charge the hybrid's battery through a generator while powering the vehicle. The engine also comes on if the vehicle's all-wheel-drive-system senses a loss in traction. Inside, the changes include a yellow start/stop button (instead of red) and a power display in place of the traditional tachometer. Mini's previous electrification efforts included the Mini E, which had a range under 100 miles and was available for leasing in 2009. Expect the plug-in hybrid to debut in 2019.

Mini Cooper five-door exists and has been spotted

Fri, 09 Nov 2012

The two-door Mini Cooper is getting two additional portals in its next generation. A coming five-door Cooper S with central exhaust has been spotted out testing, the idea presumably being that it will pose a better challenge to other small, premium hatches in the segment like the A1 Sportback from Audi. Based on the same UKL platform that will support the production version of the BMW Concept Active Tourer, the wheelbase has been lengthened to make more room for rear passengers.
It should be revealed on the auto show circuit at some point next year, getting buyers ready for its production in 2014. We'll find out then if it gets a special name and how it fits in with - or perhaps replaces - the Clubman.
